      <p>
         The <code class="methodname">DB_ENV-&gt;rep_set_limit()</code> method sets
         record transmission throttling. This is a byte-count limit on the
         amount of data that will be transmitted from a site in response to
         a single message processed by the 
         <a class="xref" href="repmessage.html" title="DB_ENV-&gt;rep_process_message()">DB_ENV-&gt;rep_process_message()</a> method.  
         The limit is not a hard limit, and the record that exceeds the limit 
         is the last record to be sent.
    </p>
      <p>
         Record transmission throttling is turned on by default with a limit of
         10MB.
    </p>
      <p>
         If the values passed to the <code class="methodname">DB_ENV-&gt;rep_set_limit()</code> 
         method are both zero, then the transmission limit is turned off.
    </p>
      <p>
         The database environment's replication subsystem may also be
         configured using the environment's <a href="../../programmer_reference/env_db_config.html#env_db_config.DB_CONFIG" class="olink">DB_CONFIG</a> file.  The syntax
         of the entry in that file is a single line with the string
         "rep_set_limit", one or more whitespace characters, and the limit
         specified in two parts: the gigabytes and the bytes values.  For
         example, "rep_set_limit 0 1048576" sets a 1 megabyte limit.
         Because the <a href="../../programmer_reference/env_db_config.html#env_db_config.DB_CONFIG" class="olink">DB_CONFIG</a> file is read when the database environment
         is opened, it will silently overrule configuration done before
         that time.
    </p>
      <p>
         The <code class="methodname">DB_ENV-&gt;rep_set_limit()</code> method
         configures a database environment, not only operations performed
         using the specified <a class="link" href="env.html" title="Chapter 5.  The DB_ENV Handle">DB_ENV</a>
         handle.
    </p>
      <p>
         The <code class="methodname">DB_ENV-&gt;rep_set_limit()</code> method may be
         called at any time during the life of the application.
